Honestly? I think people on here like fluff, but it has to be click bait fluff. And even then it may fail. It's probably no consolation that I too, have a collection of similar earnings, often on my best stories. No one appreciates quality! The shit stories about medium might earn a double figures if I'm lucky (or $2 if I'm not), but the brilliant interviews often only earn 50 cents. I can't get my head around it, but it seems people like personal stuff.

Why then, does yours not fly? I'm honestly clueless. Sometimes my personal things do better, sometimes they do nothing at all. August had this piece about my husband getting old that got everyone hot and bothered. It was weird.
